I was just about to purchase a HSU STF-2 from HSU when a family friend offered his REL Q201E to me for $400. I researched this subwoofer and saw it retailes for around $1250. The subwoofer is nearly new but i am not familiar with REL, although i have heard it is an "upper-end" product. Anyway, which would be the better $400 to spend.
thanks guys |

The REL will compliment music with clarity and aplomb. It is not likely to loosen your teeth for movies, but will certainly work well.
I'll buy it if you don't. |

What subwoofer is it that your friend wants to move up to ? In other words why is he giving away a $1200 sub for $400? |

The Q201E for that price is somewhat of a bargain even though its no longer a current model. Quality compact sub no doubt. |

I have no idea why he is upgrading subs. He does watch mostly movies, maybe he is looking for more of a rumble as Nuck mentioned above. Ill ask next time i see him. |
